I found my way by a pal who linked me to the DF thread about Aurora and thought I give it a try. I dig alot for "different" indie games but Ive never stumbled upon this pearl. After 3 days my brain is smolten to cheese, my eyes are sore from reading posts, fiction and rules but Im happy. Strangely I disklike those number-crunshing browser SF games so I wasnt sure if I would like Aurora. But the freedom and creativity it allows is outstanding!
Sometimes I think its too sad that the common gamer has mostly lost his ability to like a game for the soul of the game instead of fancy graphics on a dull, soulless background. Not that I dislike fancy visuals but the majors have often lost their ability to develop past the visuals.
